New deployments
We have also deployed two InvenioRDM instances:

the latest monthly release (e.g. version 0.7.0). The corresponding
documentation will be at http://inveniordm.docs.cern.ch. - QA Demo site (https://inveniordm-qa.web.cern.ch), which will
host thelatest
changes during the development. The corresponding
documentation will be at http://inveniordm-qa.docs.cern.ch.

Try out this release by using the documentation (http://inveniordm.docs.cern.ch).
Try to make it your own, we are mostly interested in you trying the new metadata
extensions and custom vocabularies. If you have the chance, please try to deploy

"metadata_restricted": false,
"files_restricted": false
},
"_owners": [1],
"_created_by": 1,
"access_right": "open",
"community": {
"primary": "Maincom",
"secondary": ["Subcom One"]
},
"creators": [],
"identifiers": {
"DOI": "10.9999/rdm.9999999"
},
"resource_type": {
"type": "image",

"titles": [{
"title": "A minimal record",
